I was intrigued what kind of person wants to practice 5 times a week. They might have been amazing, like that bass player from Oasis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BreadBin Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 Oasis could have rehearsed 7 nights a week - they'd still have been sh!t. 3 1 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_lefty Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I love it when there's fantasist out there who think they're the next Mick Jagger/ Jimi Hendrix and they get really shirty with you for not being professional enough while also begging to have an audition... At least you don't have to waste your time meeting this one! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 Right...singer is ill so a no show - although he told us yesterday he’d do his best. He called me today and sounded like crap. He offered to pay for tonight... Instead we tightened up some new ideas, and Andy the new guitarist paid for rehearsal. sounds ace. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted September 11, 2020 Author Share Posted September 11, 2020 If it’s of any interest...the original “guitarist audition” piece - live in a room. Single Rode M1 - needed another really, but does a fair job at high SPL - drummer is louder than a jumbo jet. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CbEpWb-ax4unl9dipC9JsRlMCPCZhdnj/view?usp=drivesdk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted September 15, 2020 Author Share Posted September 15, 2020 Right...the girl singer we’d not agreed on was due to arrive tonight. didnt seem to fit to me, but happy to take a chance. she messaged at 7.40 ”I can’t believe I’ve double booked” - she definitely hadn’t. saves messing about. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted September 15, 2020 Author Share Posted September 15, 2020 The rehearsal room have just bought an @Ashdown Engineering 414t cab. I now want one. Cannot believe a 410 is that light. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That didn’t happen due to a family commitment I’d forgotten (daughters wheelchair assessment). Meeting Aaron (a Guy I’ve worked with before) on Tuesday. He’s the front runner to be fair - I already know he’s up to the job, just depends if he’s up for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted September 22, 2020 Author Share Posted September 22, 2020 Singer came. Singer sang. immense range, will work, for sure. Not sure if it’s what he wants to do...but... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted September 24, 2020 Author Share Posted September 24, 2020 Radio silence from guy I've known for years. Speaks volumes. I think “hi mate, that was fun - but not for me” would’ve been better than nothing. Sent him the audio files from the rehearsal, no “cheers mate”. Really odd - hopefully he’ll say something at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyTravis Posted September 28, 2020 Author Share Posted September 28, 2020 Ok, next up, we try Tom...seems a very good singer. Monday next week. We also have a guy called Joseph lined up - doing in order of expression of interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
